Putting a transmission from a 84 300cd into an 85 300TD and have hit a few snags. The 85 has an updated NSS connector. Are the wires the same? Can i just splice over the 84 connector? When removing the 300td engine I stupidly forgot to remove the exhaust. Ended up unwinding the flex pipe before i noticed. What would be the best plan of attack? Cut up the pipe, cut the flex pipe out of the 84 and weld it in (i have a mig welder)? Id imagine I could take that part of the exhaust from the 84 and put it in the 85 but the 85 is a kali car.


Can you buy the flex pipe stuff? Im thinking I might just buy a length of it and put a few jubille clips on it and call it done.


Is the transmission gear selector rod supposed to be bent on the 300td? This ones bent in weird angles but was working fine.
